| The area by the canalside pub, The Water Witch, in Lancaster, is one of my favourite places to photograph canal boats. The pub happens to be quite an attraction too! Here we see 'Farthings Hook.' |

Some great scope for photo's here, I love boats and water. Is this the same canal that goes to Skipton passing through Gargrave?
ReplyDeleteThe canal at Skipton and Gargrave is the Leeds-Liverpool Canal. The lancaster Canal runs from Preston to Tewitfield, just north of Carnforth, although at one time it went through as far as Kendal. You can still follow it on foot, and work is progressing to try and reopen it.
